Thanks everyone! So far the white and blacks are working out well and I think they look good. I will post more blocks in the next few days. I am going in order from the LTG book and I am now starting work on the churn dash blocks.

Did anyone else have "problems" with the Plus Star block? I had a heck of a time figuring out what went where, even though I laid out the block row by row. It is together now, but took me almost 3 days to get it figured out. I went so far as to enlarge and copy the block from the book and colored in the different components. Still was confused. Don't think I made any errors, but not 100% thrilled with the final block. Oh well....

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. I will be starting the churn dash blocks today as DH is busy studying for a pharmacology exam.

Merry Christmas Everyone.

The hardest part for me of the PLus a star block was figuring out the fabrics. I made a similar quilt not too long before I made LTG so the lay out was quite familiar to me.

Thank you Judith!!

Merry Christmas from me to all of you too!

Merry Christmas, ladies!! Hope you had a lovely day in whatever you did to celebrate the season!

It looks like on every thread the last posts have disappeared!!

Happy New Year to all of you!

Wow Teen these are all beautiful. I am going to see about getting some of her patterns. I have always admired those Gypsy Wife quilts I have seen.

After a holiday break, I got back to Long Time Gone over the last few days. I had been intimidated by the small Courthouse Steps blocks but actually found them quite easy. I then did the Log Cabin blocks with no real problems. Next, I hit the half square triangles. Mama mia! The block made with 2" HSTs was murder, but thankfully I finished. It may pass the galloping horse test but certainly not any close scrutiny. I'm going to take another break for a day or so. These blocks are intense!

Lol...".galloping horse test"....priceless. I'm sure they are great and look forward to seeing all you have accomplished. Sounds like you got a bunch done.

Thank you! You'll love her patterns. Never a dull moment! Lol..
